68 -68 Ringleader_1
After ten minutes, Mu You and Cola arrived at the location indicated by the detector’s light.
They were nearing the heart of Qubai Mountain, surrounded by horrifyingly dense vegetation.
Because the trees were so thick, it was difficult for the Battle Eagle to pierce through the canopy and spot any hidden creatures.
“It’s definitely nearby.”
Mu You put away his gauge as the two light points on it had already converged.
At such close range, the detector was no longer accurate, and they had to rely on their eyesight.
“Meow!!”
Just as Mu You was about to survey the area carefully, Cola suddenly bellowed and pounced on him, swinging its claws towards his face.
“Cola?”
Mu You dodged swiftly, looking at it curiously.
Upon landing, Cola arched its back, its tail tucked in, and its fur bristling.
It looked ready to attack at any moment, but its eyes were insistently drifting in a particular direction, furiously signalling him.
Immediately getting the clue, Mu You waved his magic wand and sparkled away.
While avoiding Cola’s pursuit, he surveyed the area, focusing on the direction Cola had indicated.
Sure enough, he quickly found something!
Perched on a branch of a three-meter-tall tree was a large nest, and in it, a bird resembling an owl.
However, it was covered in purple feathers, giving it a rather eerie appearance.
“Meow!”
Cola was still clawing wildly around in the background, leaving no chance to consult it.
However, Mu You noticed that the bird’s gaze was fixed on Cola!
So he deduced that its abilities were probably similar to Cola’s, functioning through visual contact.
Mu You picked up a few stones from the ground without startling it and hurled them towards the purple bird.
The reason he didn’t use a bow and arrow was for fear of killing the bird.
It was, after all, a magical creature, better caught alive.
Thanks to his high attributes, Mu You’s control over his strength was fairly decent.
But unfortunately, the distance was too great, and the stone ended up slightly missing the bird and hit the side of the nest.
Much to Mu You’s surprise, the purple bird noticed the incoming stone, made a cooing sound, and flapped its wings to fly up, shielding its nest and knocking down the incoming stone.
Of course, because it was hit by the stone, it lost balance and fell from the heights, plummeting onto the leaf-littered ground below.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Mu You charged over, intending to control the bird first.
However, halfway through, the fallen purple bird’s head suddenly turned 180 degrees, and its gaze fixed on him.
Its purple pupils emitted waves of invisible light.
Mu You suddenly felt he couldn’t move, as if a powerful, foreign consciousness had entered his mind, controlling his body directly.
Not only could he not proceed further, but he also started retreating backwards involuntarily.
No matter how hard he fought, it was of no avail.
However, Mu You noted that while the bird had controlled him, it hadn’t forced him to do anything harmful, like running into a tree.
Evidently, it had certain limitations, and couldn’t make drastic moves that could cause harm to the person it controls.
Otherwise, its control would likely become ineffective.
“Meow!”
Just then, Cola pounced from the other side, pinning the purple bird down.
It raised its paw and slapped the bird’s head.
At that moment, Mu You felt his body returning to normal, regaining control.
“Trash!
How dare you control your Cat Lord?
Don’t you know, I, Uchiha Cola, am the progenitor of control!
Let’s see how you like the taste of Infinite Tsukuyomi!”
“In the world of Tsukuyomi, space, time, and mass are all under my control.
For the next 72 hours, you’ll constantly sink into the agony of my claws tearing into you!
Ha, ha, ha, how many floors can a bag of rice take!” Cola laughed maniacally like a maniac, straddling the purple bird and swinging its claws, repeatedly slapping the bird’s face.
Feathers were torn off one by one, scattering around them.
“Alright, alright, stop hitting!”
Mu You quickly ran over to stop Cola’s violent attack, worried it might kill the bird.
Picking up Cola, Mu You hastily tore a strip of cloth from his body and blindfolded the purple bird.
Only once he confirmed that he was no longer under the bird’s control did he breathe a sigh of relief.
At first, the bird’s control seemed powerful, but after experiencing it firsthand, he realized it was weak.
Not only could it not make those it controlled harm themselves, but it could also control just one person at a time.
That is to say, as long as there are two people acting together, they can easily overcome this kind of bird.
“Keep an eye on it!”
Mu You ordered Cola, then dashed over to the large tree holding the nest.
With the Magic Wand in his mouth, he scaled the tree with ease.
Earlier, the bird had preferred to get injured rather than letting anything happen to its nest.
Maybe there was something valuable inside!
However, when Mu You reached the nest and looked inside, he found nothing but neatly laid out bird eggs, ten of them.
“Just eggs…
Feeling a bit disappointed, Mu You had thought there was some hidden treasure.
But what puzzled him was the size of these eggs.
Weren’t they too big?
Mu You glanced down at the purple bird confusedly.
It was just a medium-sized bird, about 30 centimeters long, but the eggs in the nest were 10 to 15 centimeters each, as big as ostrich eggs.
Did this mother bird really lay these eggs?
Carefully removing the nest, Mu You teleported back to the ground.
“Quick, take a look.
What kind of eggs are these?” Mu You immediately held up the nest for Master Cola to inspect.
After just one glance at the wave-like patterns on the shell, Cola cried out, “These are all Chocobo eggs, meow!”
“Chocobo?
All of them?”
With these words, Mu You was ecstatic!
He remembered the time when he was renting pets in the game.
A single Chocobo had a deposit of 400 years of life and an hourly rental fee of 6 years!
That’s to say, a single Chocobo’s value is at least 400 years of life!
And now, he had ten whole eggs, which was equivalent to assets worth four thousand years!
Jackpot!
Ecstatic, Mu You, with dreams of setting up a Chocobo experience store instead of a pet shop, thought that with people’s curiosity today, making a hundred years of life in a day was definitely not an exaggeration!
Don’t think this idea was fanciful.
With the upcoming public testing of the game, if these two worlds truly merged on a large scale, various magical creatures and items would inevitably gradually enter human daily life.
Stores that rent magical creatures might actually become a thing!
After envisioning this, Mu You shook his head, momentarily calming down the excitement in his heart.
He then looked down at the purple bird at his feet,”So what’s with this bird?
Why is it in the Chocobo’s nest?”
“This bird is called a Fwooper.
Fwoopers are like this, meow!
They find it difficult to lay their own eggs but still love to incubate them, so they often steal eggs from other birds and brood them as their own,” Cola explained.
Well, damn!
Mu You was taken by surprise.
He had heard of birds that lay their eggs in other birds’ nests, but he’d never thought there would be a bird that specifically steals eggs to hatch them.
What a pathological sense of motherhood! freёweɓnovel.com
Why the hell call it a Fwooper?
Might as well call it a Kuchisake bird!
